It’s been an unforgettable 4 years. As my time here as a BU student comes to a close with graduation right around the corner, I find myself spending a lot of time reflecting on my experiences and have come to the realization that throughout my time here, I’ve been given a lot to be thankful [...]

*Tweet, Tweet* Anyone who knows me is well aware of my obsession with Twitter. I tweet constantly, but it’s OK. I’m pretty sure I don’t need an intervention. Not yet, anyway… Since I spend way too much time on Twitter, I thought I’d share some advice on how to make the most of your Twitter [...]

Hey everyone! As I’m sitting here writing in the Sun and watching happy joggers bounce down the banks of the Charles, it’s clear that summer has arrived.

For my blog post this [...]

Finally the weather is nice and I don’t have to wear so many layers outside. There are no more piles of snow lingering under shaded tress or piled in the corner of parking lots. I just love seeing so many people laying on the COM lawn or playing Frisbee on the BU Beach. This is [...]

A lot of people come to tours at Boston University and will ask about Greek Life. It’s understandable; with movies like Legally Blonde and Animal House, it may be hard to imagine college without fraternity parties or seeing the stereotypical sorority women sporting their Lilly Pulitzer dresses and bows. But many people come to BU [...]

One of my favorite parts about COM is all of the guest speakers we are spoiled with on a daily basis. And I mean spoiled rotten. Just last week my public relations teacher brought in one of his friends who worked for the Today Show and he had some great stories about working in the [...]

So as you might be readily aware, the clubs offered through COM are plentiful. It can be hard to figure out which organization will offer you the type of experience you’re looking for, whatever that may be. Once you finally pick one or two or five, you get so wrapped up in said club(s) that [...]
